TWO SIDES TO A STORY.
Strikers and Employers Tell Differ
ent Tales.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 4.-Over 800
men employed in the nut, bolt and
rivet works of Hopes n Townsend
struck at II O'Clock this morning. The
strike Is authorized by District Assembly
No. l, knights OF Labor. One of the
strikers SAID: "Siuce last December
twenty men have been DISCHARGED for no
reason but that they were Knights OF
Labor, and we have tried every method
to have them taken back or arbitrate on
the matter, but having failed in this
there was nothing for US to do but
strike. Our demands are for the re-
instatement of the men who were dis
charged without cause" About 200 men
remained at work. MIR. Hooues said that
the works would continue the same as be-
fore, and steps will be taken at once to get
men To take the places of the strikes. He
said the discharged workmen for whose
reinstatement the employees have gone on
strike were dismissed because they
were dis satisfied and not because they
belonged to any organization. The men,
bers of the firm say positively that they
W II not take back the discharged men.
and tn. men say that nothing else will
satisfy them.

INTERSTATE COMMERCE.
The President Signs the Bill JUS
Passed by Congress.

The President Signs the Bill Just
Passed by Congress.
WASHINGTON. Fep. 4.-The President
at O'Clock this afternoon signed the in.
terstate commerce bill, and it thus be-
comes a law.
The signing of the bill by the President
was in full accord with the opinion of t.
tOrLey General Garland, rendered to him
on last Monday, and it is very well under
stood to be in accord with the views of
the Cabinet. The Attorney General was
asked tonight to give his views IN regard
to the bill and explain wherein 1t differed
from the Senate bill OF two years ago
which ne opposed ON the ground that it
was unconstitutional. He declined to do
so, saying that he regarded the opinion he
had given to the President on the subject
as strictly confidential. 1t is learned,
however, from trustworthy sources that
the Attorney General as well as the
President considers the bill which has
just become law free from all the
material features which were objection
able in the Senate bill of two years ago
According TO this information the Attor-
ney Generals objection to the Old bill was
to the vast powers OF a legislative and
Judicial character that were given to the
Commission. The Attorney General is
said to hold that the present bill does not
confer judicial powers on the Commission
but puts them in the courts on a report
from the Commission, and tnat it does not
confer legislative power except in the
fourth section { the long and short haul
clause) and that this is warranted by
numberless precedents in the legislative
history OF the government.

DIRECT rAXEs TO BE REPAID.
The Senate Passes the Bill With
Only One Dissenting Voice.

The Senate Passes the Bill With
Only One Dissenting Voice.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The Senate to.
day proceeded to consideration of the
Senate bill to credit and pay to the several
States and Territories all money collected
under the direct tax levied by the act of
Aug. 5, 1861.
Mr.. Sherman advocated and explained
the bill. He said that 1t had been several
times recommended by the Treasury De-
partment-partlya as an act Of justice and
partly to relieve the department of legal
complications. 1t referred to the tax of
500, ,000. 900 i'm posed during the war upon
all the States-North aud South. To those
Northern States which paid 1t promptly,
discount of fifteen per cent. had been
allowed. But some lew of those States
did not paw promptly, and since the war
some OF it had been collected from some
of the Southern States.
CHARGED AGAINST THE STATES.
The charges for'the quota due by the
Southern States stood against them
on the books OF the Treasury, and the
amounts due to them from the Treasury
could not be paid while these charges
stood there. Under these circumstances
three or four Secretaries of the Treasury
had recommended that out OF the
overlooking Treasury there be paid
back to the States the amounts
received from them, and that other States
be credited with their share of the tax.
The bill was maniiestly just. 1t had been
uniformity recommended by the Treasury
Department, and had been unanimously
recOmme nded by the Committee on FL
nance. The aggregate of the amount TO
be refunded would be about $l4, ,O00. 900 or
$lj, GOO.
MIR. VAN WYCK OBJECTS.
Mr.. Van Wyck argued against the bill
as part OF general scheme to depete
the Treasury. If the Southern States
we're not able to pay their quota of that
direct tax he would have the debt for
given to them. The people who paid the
tax would derive no advantage from the
bill. His belief was that this was only one
Of the kindred propositions to deplete the
Treasury so that there would be no anna
rent excuse for granting what the people
really demanded--a reduction OF the tax
alton which now weighed heavily on
them. After further discussion the bin
was passed by vote OF 50 yeas to nay
MIR. Van Wyck.
PROVISIONS OF THE BILL.
The bill directs the Secretary Of the
Treasury 10 credit to each state and Ter
rtory, and 10 tne District Of Columbia,
sum equal TO all the collections made
from them under the direct tax act. 1t
RENTS and relinquishes all of the tax
still due, and it approprlates a sufficient
amount to reimburse the States for all
moneys found dne TO them under the
provisions OF this act, TO be
paid TO their respective Governors,
provided that where taxes have been COL
lected from citlZ Zens, either directly or by
the sale OF properly, the amount shall be
held in trust for them or their legal rep
resentatiYes in the respective states.

Printers Demand an Increase.

CHICAGO, Feb. 4.-The Typographical
Union has advanced the price OF compo-
sluon from SIC. to 40c. on afternoon pa
pers, and from 40c, to 45c. on morning
papers, and given the publishers The
necessary thirty days notice. The pub
fishers decline to accede to the advance,
and demand that the question be SUD-
mitted to arbitration. The printers say
that they have been beaten twice by arbi-
tratlon and will not submit to any such
tribunal again. All the publishers stand
together. Tne situations of 400 or 500
men are involved, and they claim that
there are very few nOn-uniOn men here,
and that the publishers must come TO
their terms or stop publication.

POPE LEO AND GERMANY.
The Aid Lent the Church by the
Centre Party Acknowled ged.

The Aid Lent the Church by the
Centre Party Acknowledged.
MUNICH, Feb. 4.-Cardinal Jacobini,
the Papal Secretary of State, in answer TO
an inquiry made by Baron Frankenstein
through the Papal NunciO here as TO
whether the Curia regarded the existence
OF the Centre party as superhuous, in
which case the Baron declared that many
members Of the party would resign, In-
forms Baron Frankenstein that the Pope
acknowledges the services OF the mem bers
Ot the Centre party, and urges them t0
continue IN their work and complete the
removal OF exceptional ecclesiastical [
laws affecting the Roman Catholic
Church IN Germany and to ameliorate
The position of German Catholics and
the Pope. The Pope, the Cardinal fur
tner says, admits the Centre party's lib
erty Of action IN non-ecclesiastical mat
ters, but says that the septennate ques-
ti0n embraces religious and moral con-
siderations which justify him In express
ing the opinion that he may expect from
the Centre party's cOnciliatIOn towards
the measure a beneficial effect ip the final
revision Of the May laws, and he hopes
IN this case TO work through the Centre
party to maintain peace. In addition to
this Cardinal Jacobini says the Pope de-
sires TO meet the views OF Emperor WILL
lam and Prince Bismarck, and thereby
induce the powerful German empire TO
improve the position OF the papacy. The
Pope asks that all OF the Centre party
throughout Germany be notified OF the
views OF the Holy See.

CARLISLE'S TRUCE FLAG.
THE RANDALLITES REFUSE TO
ACCEPT THE TERMS.

Revenue Reformers Entirely Unable to
Recognize the Internal Revenue Prop
ositious of the Protection Democrats
"A Modified Form of the Morrison
Bill the Basis on Which the Randall
ties Were offered Chance to Make
PeRc+,
AsHINGTON, Feb. 4.--Speaker Car
Isle, acting for the tariff retormers in the
House, has written letter to Represent
ative Randall defining the position of the
tariff retOrmers on the question of tariff
reduction, and particularly with respect
to the bill recently framed by the prOtec-
ti0n Democrats. The letter was uuob-
tainable tonight, and it is said will not
be made public until reply TO the letter
can be drafted. 1t is learned, however,
that the letter, while couched in the most
cordial terms, expresses the entire abil-
lty OF the tariff retOrmers to accept the
Internal revenue features OF the bill pre-
pared by the protection faction of the
Democratic party, and expresses a de-
sire tor much larger reduction in the
customs duties than the bill contains,
Some eighteen or twenty instances are
pointed out in the letter in which it is al
legged the duty is increased instead OF de-
creased.
A COMPROMISE OFFERED.
The Speaker then, i'll behalf Of his wing
Of the party, advances propositions upon
which tounite the party in favor of a bill
to reduce the surplus revenue. The GUS
toms features of this proposition are said
by the Randall men to be but slight modi-
tcations of the Morrison bill. 1t is pro-
posed that most of the articles on the
Morrison free list be incorporated in the
new bill, including salt, lumber, wool,
fish. etc.
The letter says it is impossible for the
revenue TetOTmers TO agree upon the in
ternal revenue features of the Randall
bill without very material modification.
On this point the Speaker suggests will
lingness 10 greatly modify the methods of
the collection Of taxes so as to render the
laws less oppressive, and declares a
readiness to reduce the taxes on tobacco
and fruit brandies in certain cases, but
not to repeal the internal revenue taxes
on those articles. This portion of the
letter is said to be in line with the Breck-
inridge bill.
REJECTED BY THE RANDALLITES.
The Randall men held a conference TO-
night, at which it was decided not to ac-
cept the proposition advanced by Mr..
Carlisle, and Messrs. Randall, Warner
and Henderson, of North Carolina. We're
appointed committee to draft reply TO
the letter.
A prominent member of the protection
wing of the party sad tonight that the
letter left both sizes OF the party almost
as far apart as ever on the tariff ques-
ton.
Tonight there is a good deal of tai
about endeaVOring to repeal the tobacco
tax on Monday next, which is individu al
suspension day. but the matter has not
assumed any definite shape as vet, and it
is probable that if sucn move is made it
will be entirely an Individual one on the
part OF the member making the motion.
Speaker Carlisle said to-day that the
revenue reduction bill would not be
passed at this session, and that therefore
the President would call for an extra ses-
zion of the next Con 2ress.

EGYPT'S OCCUPATION.
A Radical Draws Sombre Picture
in the House OF Commons.


LONDON, Feb. A. In the House OF
Commons this afternoon Mr.. Cremer
Radlcal) moved an amendment to the
address in reply to the Queens speech,
demanding the immediate recall of all
British forces in Egypt. Sir Wilfrcd
Lawson (R1iical), In seconding the mo-
ton, said: I'VE nave raised the funded
debt OF Egypt from 100000. .000 to $780,
OOO,O0O, slaughtered many thousands Of
natives. crippled the National Cham
Der, bombarded the principal city
OF the country under cir
cumstances of the greatest horror, iu-
creased taxation, promoted horrible de-
oauohery In the capital, sown dissensions
between the khedive and his people, and
crushed out the first little sparks OF inds-
pendence that has been seen in Eastern
nations for ages past. Sir James FerEu-
son, Parliamentary Secretary to the
Foreign Office, condemned this "Over-
drawn picture" OF the English occupa-
tion OF Egypt. He said the occupation
was initiated at the instance and under
the mandate of Europe to prevent Egypt
from falling to pieces on account OF lntes-
tine troubles. The government, he de-
cared, were doing what they could to
reduce the force in Egypt, and 1t would
shortly be limited to 5000 men.
THE QUESTION OF TAXATION.
Mr.. Caine argued that the Europeans
who get the most out of Egypt ought to
bear the chief burden of taxation. If
liquor shops were allowed TO carry on
business they ought to be heavily taxed.
England ought to ask the powers to con-
sent to proper system of taxation Tor
ruling the country, and il they
refused she should evacuate and leave
Egypt to itself. Mr.. Caiue said in
conclusion: "Unless we have free
hand we snail sooner or later fnd our
selves involved with the great powers,
who viii insist upon our coming out Of
Egypt"
Hon. W. IL. Smith defended the gov
ernments policy. He SAID evacuation
OF Egypt by England would throw that
country into IA state OF anarchy.
Mr.. Cremer's amendment was rejected
bs a vote OF 263 to 81.
Mr.. Parnell adjourned the debate.
